Overview

About our Participate Community support

Being part of your community is about belonging, confidence and doing more of what you love. We support you to get out and about, connect with people and take part in the social, recreational and civic activities that matter to you.

Whether it is a footy match, a trip to the beach, a local market, a gym session, a church or cultural event, or catching up with friends for coffee, we help you plan, attend and enjoy it with the right level of support.

Over time, we can help you build friendships and routines that keep you connected, with or without a support worker by your side.

NDIS funding

How this support is funded

This support is usually funded from the Core – Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation budget in your NDIS plan. Every plan is different, so we will check your plan with you and explain costs before your support starts.

Prices follow the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits. Everyday living costs, such as rent, groceries and entry fees, are not usually covered by NDIS funding.

FAQs

Common questions

Who pays for tickets and entry fees?

NDIS funding covers your support worker’s time. Your own tickets, entry fees and food are usually paid by you. A support worker’s entry cost may sometimes be covered; we will talk this through before an activity.

Can I do activities on weekends or evenings?

Tell us when you would like support and we will work with you to arrange times that suit your activities.

Can I bring a friend along?

Of course. Many participants enjoy activities with friends or family, with a support worker there to help as needed.
